Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3541EMP-S-0280B-S2 — 5MP Eyeball IP Camera
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3541EMP-S-0280B-S2 is a 5MP eyeball-style network camera fitted with a 2.8mm fixed lens, giving a wide field of view suited to entrances, corridors and general area coverage. On-board deep-learning analytics classify human and vehicle activity to help cut false alerts, while an IP67 rating keeps the camera protected in exposed, harsh environments.
Who is it for?
IP cameras carry video and PoE power over one Cat5e/Cat6 cable to a PoE NVR — ideal when cabling from scratch or wanting resolutions/analytics beyond coax. At 5MP with AI human/vehicle classification, the HDW3541EMP-S-0280B-S2 suits small to medium sites such as shop entrances, offices and residential perimeters where compact eyeball styling and smart alerts matter more than long-range zoom. Its 2.8mm lens and eyeball housing make it a discreet choice for wall or ceiling mounting indoors or under eaves.

- Cat5e or Cat6 cabling to carry video and power from each camera back to the NVR

Frequently asked questions
Will this camera work with a non-Dahua NVR?
Yes. It supports ONVIF, so it can be added to most third-party NVRs as a generic ONVIF camera, though some Dahua-specific features may only be available on a Dahua NVR.
Does it need a separate power supply?
No separate power supply is needed if you power it over PoE from a compatible NVR or switch. Without PoE, you would need a separate 12V DC power supply.
How much storage do I need?
Storage depends on resolution, frame rate, number of cameras and retention period; this camera supports up to a 256GB microSD card for local, edge storage in addition to NVR recording.
Can I use the built-in microphone for audio recording?
Yes, the built-in mic captures real-time audio alongside video, useful for added evidential context — check local recording and privacy regulations before enabling it.
